165 Alpha gets weighed

[snochuk]

Nex pictures are Rear/Left/Right balance from when the skis/track where just unloaded.

It doesn't completely add up as you would expect,obviously a margin of error in how I measured, but it doesn't give some idea of the balance on the machine.

Oh and that is a smoking Zamboni in the background.

Soooooo is my math all f'd up or are the Doo 154 and the Cat 165 within .6 of a pound????

your math is F'd up. You forgot to add the weight of a second rail to the alpha ( its not a complete snowmobile )

And less HP....

And less HP....

OK that was not necessary!
lol

Tha side to side balance is impressive. Maybe both a bit heavy but nice and even. Stock can?

Stock can...as it would roll out of a dealers showroom

I don't believe many people would put Rene in the same category as Bret, lol

He may charge just as much though

Ever rode with him? I would put him in the same category or possibly higher

Unless I missed a inside joke, Snochuk said after all the weighins theres a new fat kid. I didnt want to read the whole thread, if we are talking two stroke mtn sleds I was wondering what the real world weights are.

I did find out the doos dry weight is not dry, it includes all fluids except gas.

A guy can always shed some hp/weight ratio this way....

Yeah now we have to dyno them all till they blow up to see 1-who can handle the most boost 2 - calculate boosted power to weight ratio.
